That is an amazing job of craftsmanship.  Those are all splendid examples of BP accoutrements.

Hawkeye,

I've been looking for some link chain like the type you show attached to the powder measure.  Do you have a source for chain like that ?

Thanks

The chain on the measure can be found at clock suppliers. Search the internet and you will find several suppliers to choose from.
God Bless
